Water Sky Album Review (Jeff Johnson and Phil Keaggy)
Winter Sky Tour announcement
Artists: Jeff
Johnson and Phil Keaggy
Album: Water-Sky
Genre:
New-Coustic (New Age,
experimental jazz, instrumental)
(late summer 2012)
Quick Spin: a simply extraordinary sonic treat from two of our planet’s premier
instrumentalists (when they are not singing) who, together have crafted an
intimate -- somewhat brooding and minor -- sometimes quiet and colorful, shimmering and bold, audio diary of
a “Place.”
WaterSky is something of a follow-up
to the duo’s first collaborative work, Frio Suite, and draws on the same recipe
and place. (You can read my review of
that work here.)
Before I get on with my album review I want to interrupt with
a commercial
Kirk Jordan’s Bucket list (abridged)
1) Take a tornado/selfie combo picture, presumably with the
cone over my shoulder.
2) Eat Thai food in Thailand.
3) Figure out how to map biblical predestination and free-will.
4) Give a grandkid a shoulder ride. (First things first, a daughter or two to be wed etc.)
5) Hear Jeff Johnson and Phil Keaggy together in concert.
